Fitting Proximity Entrance on IS200 Turbo
Fitting Proximity Entrance on IS200 Turbo
Here we go i picked up a Push button and proximity entrance kit there will be a group buy for the complete system or parts of it
OK so we start of with the System i removed all the wires that i didnt need from the proximity circuit that left me with a total of 7 Cables to terminate as shown below
i then moved on to narrowing these down for install purpose due to the fcat i have a after-market alarm on the car it makes it interesting to install.
With a after-market alarm i need to be able to activate and de active the alarm in doing so this will unlock the doors and turn off the immobiliser.
so my way of doing this was to mimic the operation of the lock and unlock on a G5 remote i disabled all other buttons PERMANENTLY and here is the result of that
so once i had tested this by shorting the 2 wires together the car locked and unlocked accordingly.
now with this in mind i worked out the best way to take the lock and unlock signals from the proximity unit and have them bboth trigger the clifford alarm.
THis was done by taking a relay adding 2 diodes to one side of the coil
then the lock wire went to one diode the Unlock wire went to the other give a constant 12v to the other side of the coil on the relay.
in doing this it stopped the circuit getting any feedback into the main Brain whilst allowing both Lock and unlock to trigger the same switch.
i then made this a little neater and dressed the cables
so now onto the fitting of the unit
Rear mounted antenna position
Front mounted antenna Position
I also put the by pass unit in here as well so everything is nice and hidden
i ran the cables from the front to the rear of the car under the carpet as shown here
Once all the cables were routed through it was time to connect up all the connections you need are located by the steering column
Constant 12v (red) 18AWG
ACC 12v (Small Red) 18AWG
Ground (Black) 22AWG
to trigger the lock and unlock
Lock (Green) 18AWG
unlock (Blue) 18AWG
That is seriously awesome, and in some ways how keyless entry should be (although I realise why manufacturers have to do it the way they do it)
That's quite cool mate :thumbup1:
But i have a question? When your in the car itself can you still use the door lock button on the drivers door switch panel to lock the doors? Or does this system disable it being as your inside the car? :biggrin:
once inside the car it picks up on the door lock system being activated or by the fact that ACC is on which puts the system into a hibernation once you stop the car it wakes up and allows you to get out and lock the doors after you
sorry that's a long winded way of saying yes the door switch still works lol
in effect im only using a small part of the system and all it does is activate a relay to control my alarm module. whilst keeping the whole system secure
Seriously darn cool. In the running for best electrical mod.
